* I usually only buy these when they are in season, unlike California you can't buy everything year-round, without it being 50.00 a kg, no joke.
I don't have to buy all of these every week, but this is a good overview of what's in my fridge/pantry.
I love ordering from iherb.com, use coupon code QKZ255 for $5 off your first order under $40.00 & $10 off your first order of $60 or more. It ships for a reasonable price from California to me in New Zealand, & in 2 days.
